LiveCode can 't open stack (2): forbidden chars ?

Hi,
LiveCode 7.0.1 can not open the document that it has created and saved 5 minutes before …
I wrote a stack to decrypt/encrypt texts. After all (successful) tests I saved the finished stack and shut off the computer.
Later I tried to open my "enigma" stack directly in Finder: LC was caught in an endless beachball loop …
I started LC, tried to open my stack in the Open File dialog: LC was caught …
I started LC, opened a random stack, tried something like "put the script of stack Enigma into msg": LC was caught …
So far you may know this story from my post of Jan 26, 2015.
Now I wrote a stack to perform only this one task: empty all fields of my "enigma" stack. And behold, I could regain control of my (now empty) stack.
When saved my encryption stack contained fields with character lists and encrypted text, both composed of Mac Roman chars from # 032 to # 255.
Does anyone know of forbidden characters ?
